the higher range OF the corn market Trading

Mills Subsection of Women on the ground
that he ignored the physiological causes which
make women what they are. and attended only
to the social causes but it is certainly not too

Aug g. Tt has been known ever since 1744 that
the two sexes exhibit a decided difference in the
mechanism of breathing; the breathing of males
being chiefly effected by the diaphragm, that
of females largely by the costal portion OF
the chest. It has been generally sup
posed that this restricted of the
diaphragm in females Was "a pecu-
liar reservation against the period of CESSATION,
when the abdomen cannot allow of so free a
descent of the diaphragm" but DR.. Mays, of
Philadelphia by q series of careful experiments
upon eighty-two pure blooded and half breed In
dian girls, has quite disproved this view. and
made il highly probable that the peculiar type OF
breathing found in our females has been devel-
oped by ''the constructing influence of dress
around the abdomen The ll-blooded Indian
girls were found in every instance to possess the
strictly abdominal type of breathing, more or
less divergence from this type being shown by
those of mixed blood. Such result cannot fail
TO suggest the danger of dogmatic attribution OF
sexual differences to inherent physiological ne
cessities.

Trade in All Departments Good-Fruits and

This was quite busy day in general trade.
Grocers were particularly well pleased with the
state of affairs. Coffees and sugars remain
strong with an active demand. The dried-fruit
stock is about exhausted, and canned goods are
in such good demand that stocks sold out al
most rapidly they can be accumulated.
Iron merchants report good trade, and prices
firm. Drugs are active, without change in quo
tations Fruits improving somewhat in
quality, particularly apples and peaches, but the
more liberal receipts have not had the effect to
reduce prices. Vegetables are in fairly good
supply, and the quality is improving. Sweet
potatoes plentiful, but the price keeps up to
a point which prevents very free consumption.
tomatoes are in quite liberal supply and of ex-
cellent quality. smooth and we'll ripened. We
